The Sweet Secret to Brighter Eyes: Jelly Roll BOTOX Explained

When most people think of BOTOX® Cosmetic, they picture smooth foreheads and softened crow’s feet. But did you know that BOTOX can be used in more unexpected ways? One of the latest injectable trends is called “jelly roll BOTOX,” also known as under eye BOTOX. Designed to relax the muscles under the eyes, we use it to create a more youthful, alert appearance for our patients.

What Is Jelly Roll BOTOX?

Jelly roll BOTOX is a specialized use of botulinum toxin to relax the orbicularis oculi muscle, which is responsible for creating small bulges or “jelly rolls” under the eyes when smiling or squinting. While these muscle contractions are completely normal, some people find that under eye bulges make them appear tired or aged. We can smooth and soften this area by administering a small amount of BOTOX, giving the eyes a more refreshed look.

Are you a good candidate for Jelly Roll BOTOX?

If you’re concerned about skin bulging under your eyes when you smile and want a subtle, natural-looking enhancement, jelly roll BOTOX may be right for you. It’s a quick, minimally invasive treatment with little to no downtime, making it an easy way to refresh your look.

If you have dark circles under your eyes or other tear trough concerns, however, you may be a better candidate for a filler treatment such as Restylane®. During your private consultation, we’ll help you determine your candidacy for jelly roll BOTOX or one of our other rejuvenating treatments.

How Many Units of BOTOX for Jelly Roll?

Just a very small dose of BOTOX—no more than 2 to 4 units per eye—is necessary to achieve eye-opening results. The exact amount varies based on individual muscle strength and the desired level of relaxation. After assessing your unique anatomy, one of our skilled injectors determines your dosage to ensure natural-looking results.

How Long Do Jelly Roll BOTOX Results Last?

Results from jelly roll BOTOX typically last 3 to 4 months. Since the muscles under the eyes are delicate, this area tends to respond well to small doses. Regular treatments help you maintain a consistently refreshed appearance.

Watch & Learn: Other Unconventional BOTOX Uses

Beyond jelly roll BOTOX, we offer additional “off-label” applications of BOTOX our patients love, including BOTOX to slim and refine the nose, masseter BOTOX for jaw slimming, “gummy smile” correction, and a BOTOX “lip flip” to enhance your pout.
